 A good running 66 Dodge Dart convertible with a 273 V-8 and automatic transmission.
This car has had a 1963 Dart front clip put on it so it looks like a 63 Dart from the front.
We bought this car as a project and rebuilt the front suspension and installed a 1 1/8 diameter front anti-sway bar.

The carburetor, & alternator were replaced, the radiator cleaned and the engine was given a good tune-up, including a valve adjustment.
The engine starts right-up and runs strong.
Everything works, including the power top.

This is a solid California car with  just a little "pin-hole" rust, behind the right rear wheel and on the rear floor.
This minor rust has been cleaned, treated & repaired. The chrome trim has some minor dings & scratches.

The automatic transmission shifts strong and this is the first year for mechanical shift linkage w/ the "slip-in" rear U-joint yoke.
This set-up makes it easy to swap-in all the other later Mopar LA engines and automatic transmissions.

The brakes work well and were inspected. Everything was clean & in order, with lot's of brake shoe lining left. (10 inch drum brakes)
The convertible top has been replaced and is in great condition, including the plastic rear window. (clear & no damage)
The inner top "well" has been replaced with tan vinyl material.

We no longer have time to complete this project so we are selling this car "as-is".
The car still needs final sand-out and paint. (It is in white primer)
The interior needs to be redone but the floors are solid & the original black color door panels are all in good condition.
The original jack is in the trunk and there is a new spare.
Things needed: The speedometer has a needle bounce and the turn single switch does not "cancel". (all lights work)

This car is in driving condition with a clear title and original California "Black & Yellow" plates.\
Fly-in and drive away... for Summer fun or for a restoration project.
Must sell - No reserve & no BS... This is a nice car as it is now and it has the potential to be a great car, with the addition of some interior & paint work.

Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.

Chrysler set to make $266M-investment into 8-speed transmission production

Wed, Dec 10 2014

Chrysler will shortly make a significant $266-million investment into its Kokomo, IN transmission factory in a bid to expand production of its eight-speed automatic transmissions. The gearboxes, which are built under license from Germany's ZF Friedrichshafen, have been well received by customers and critics, and according to an SEC filing obtained by Automotive News, the transmissions will eventually find their way to all of Chrysler's rear-drive offerings (Viper and heavy-duty Ram models, aside). According to AN, a Chrysler spokesman says the investment has not been confirmed, but once it is, it'll mark the company's latest in a growing line of investments at the facility. Chrysler has poured $1.5 billion into Kokomo since 2009.

Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:
